As described elsewhere, A-Shell includes two types of subroutines:
| • | Those that are "internal" to A-Shell—i.e., are part of the main A-Shell program. They do not exist as discrete programs, are written in C, and are cannot be modified by users. |
| • | The "external" routines are not part of "core A-Shell," exist as separate files and programs, were written in ASB, and can modified if needed. A set of these external routines is provided with A-Shell, and you can see the run files with the extension SBX in DSK0:[7,6]. Source code for the routines may be found in the A-Shell SOSLIB. |
The following table alphabetically lists A-Shell’s external subroutines, most of which have links to more detailed information.
